I'm not sure you bothered to go to the link I gave you - twice. If you had, you would have seen that following the instructions there would produce exactly the effect you are looking for. You would not have to click on any user icon; it would just go to the Desktop. Try it.

Hi, That setting is pretty well hidden. Go to Control Panel> System> Advanced> Performance> Settings> Visual Effects, select "Custom." Check "Use drop shadows for icon labels on the desktop." Hope this helps, Don

To disable Internet Explorer 8's pop-up blocker: click on the Tools menu, located at the far right hand side of your browser's Tab Bar.

To activate the pop-up blocker again at a later time, simply select the option labeled Turn On Pop-up Blocker , located in this same sub-menu.

Hi, 1. If this problem only affects Internet Explorer, try this... Open a webpage. Stretch it out to fullsize. Don't use maximize. Choose any link on that webpage and right-click> open in a new window. Stretch that second window out to the desired size- don't use maximize. Close the first IE window. Then close that second resized window. To always get a true maximized window... AutoSizer 1.4- ...

You say you cannot "use all of the display features". What does this mean? To change your screen resolution to something higher, Control Panel>Display>Settings and use the slider to set the resolution to the correct one. Are you saying you don't have this tab? If you don't: http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_w.htm If Display tabs are missing, run Kelly's registry edit on line 285, right...

This could be a hardware issue or a software issue and there is no way to tell which it is from the little information you've given us. Did the Dell diagnostics show anything? What is the recent history of this machine? Do you know if it is virus/malware-free?

To turn on filenames, hold down the Shift key when you switch into thumbnail view. This will turn on the file names. Doing it again turns them back Off. Change to some other view (list) and close the folder. Re-open the folder, click View, hold the Shift key and select Thumbnail view.

Hi Stembo, Try Windows Live Photo Gallery (which includes the Windows Live Photo Gallery Screensaver). It allows you disable the "shuffle" option. You don't get file names displayed in the slideshow, though.

Hi, 1. Try Ctrl+Alt+right arrow key (or maybe left or up or down arrow key.) 2. Access Display Settings (from Control Panel or right-clicking the desktop) and look for an option to rotate the screen. 3. Check the System Tray for an icon for Nvidia Control Panel or similar and look for the "rotate screen" option there. Hope this helps, Don Proposed As Answer by Don Varnau MVP Sunday, ...

Taskbar Repair Tool Plus May work for some things, but it does NOT fix an XP Taskbar stuck in Classic mode - and I even paid the $5.00 to open up that repair option. I am betting it has something to do with a registry entry somewhere - but where and which one??? All files that have to do with it have been replaced from the Install disc, plus a repair (both ways) has been done on the system, ...
